Hello again,

I've now converted my app to IBO and done the
compile/fiddle/compile/fiddle thing and it now compiles cleanly. My
problem now is that when I try to run it I get an ISC error which says
that my username/password isn't defined and that I need to get the DB
administrator to set up an IB login. Well I have already done this,
obviously as I was loging in fine when using the BDE. I checked it
anyway and sure enough all was ok. Just to be sure I deleted the user
and recreated it. Still the same problem.

I tried setting login prompt to true and then entered the details into
the dialogue box and it connected up without a problem.

So, what could I be doing wrong when I set the username/password in the
TIBODatabase params property and set the login prompt to false? Do I
need any other components beside TIBODatabase?

Unfortunately the "connecting to databases" in the help files is "work
in progress" but the getting started guide seems to suggest that IBO
acts in the same way as BDE - or maybe I've missread/missunderstood
(more than likely!)
